Product Description To be irrevocably in love with a vampire is both fantasy and nightmare woven into a dangerously heightened reality for Bella Swan. Pulled in one direction by her intense passion for Edward Cullen, and in another by her profound connection to werewolf Jacob Black, she has endured a tumultuous year of temptation , loss, and strife to reach the ultimate turning point. Her imminent choice to either join the dark but seductive world of immortals or pursue a fully human life has become the thread from which the date of two tribes hangs.
Now Bella has made her decision; a startling chain of unprecedented events is about to unfold with potentially devastating and unfathomable consequences. Just when the frayed strands of Bella's life--first discovered in Twilight, then scattered and torn in New Moon and Eclipse--seem ready to heal and knit together, could they be destroyed...forever?
The astonishing, breathlessly anticipated conclusion to the Twilight Saga, Breaking Dawn illuminates the secrets and mysteries of this spellbinding romantic epic.

Get Over It October 11, 2008 1 out of 5 found this review helpful
Ok so my sissy got me hooked on the twilight series and I am so in love with them. When I was going to buy the 4th book I was reading the reviews and was very disappointed when everyone was bashing the book as terrible. It is in no way terrible it is awesome! It was how it was suppose to end a true happy ending. People say that Bella wasn't suppose to get everything that she wanted (handsome husband, child, best friend, money, immortal,beauty, great sex, etc.) that life isn't that way but people, remember that this is FICTION as well as a YOUNG ADULT series. Would we really have wanted to see something bad happen to Bella, Edward, Jacob, the Cullens? The answer is NO. OH and give it a rest with the literary BS that some people are talking about like plot, character development, etc. GET OVER YOURSELF! If you want literary masterpieces then read the classics and steer away from Young Adult sections. This is an amazing book with great resolution at the end. A true twilight fan will love that all is well in the vampire world. Don't let the other crappy reviews taint your opinion. Yes the book is sappy and all matters are resolved a true fairy-tale ending.
Disappointed October 11, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I was very disappointed at this book, looking at the other 3 previous books. Everything was very expected and it was all obvious. Pregnant part was the only unusual part because i didn't know that it'll come so early in the book. I don't want to write all the details but the book disappointed me.. I thought Stephenie could've wrote a much better story.
MIND BLOWING!!! October 11, 2008 0 out of 4 found this review helpful
What an amazing end to the series! I've spent the past several nights reading this giant and it killed me to put it down every single time. Stephanie Meyer truly delivered with this one.
As for her critics here, I'm a little put off by your judgmental attitudes. We're here to review a BOOK, not a fictional character's personal life choices. I was married at eighteen to the man of my dreams. That was nine years ago and we are still very happy together and have two beautiful young children. Getting married young is sometimes the natural conclusion to choosing purity. There's nothing wrong with that at all. In fact, a few generations ago, getting married at 18 was completely normal. You know...back when marriages used to LAST???
And besides all that, Bella and Edward clearly have a supernatural connection. There is nothing NORMAL about their relationship. So WHY are you trying to place normal societal standards on them? Good grief, people, we're talking about VAMPIRES here.
In the end, the popularity of this series speaks for itself. If you don't like Stephanie Meyer's choices, go write your own book.
I loved it and hope for a 5th October 11, 2008 0 out of 5 found this review helpful
I loved this book as I did with the first 3 books. I really hope this isn't the last one.
A message to those hating on Stephenies work. October 10, 2008 3 out of 12 found this review helpful
Contains Major Spoiler!
First off I just want to tell all the haters that they're ridiculous. I don't mind people disagreeing with the book or downright hating it. What I'm sick and tired of is hearing about how Stephenie went and made Bella's character a bad role model for young girls to look up to. Stephenie is the author and she can write her book however way she wants to. I think people get caught up in the idea that it's their own personal story and should cater to exactly how they want it to pan out. This was Stephenie's dream of how she wanted this book to be written. If you had an idea of a book to write and you believed it was so perfect in your mind of how you wanted it to be but everyone around you told you how to write it, would you listen to them? She is the author, we're just going along with the ride and reading her work. There are things in the story that shocked and surprised me. There were things I wish hadn't happened and things I wished that did happen. It's fine to have your own opinion, but to go to the extent to making assumptions about Stephenie copping out and throwing a sloppy book together or that she's giving young girls a bad image to look up to is just very immature and narrowminded. Also what's really bugging me is all the negative attention on Bella deciding to name her daughter Renesmee. When I first read it, I fell in love with the name. It's unique, I don't understand why people say it's hard to pronounce and spell. It's a beautifull name. I thought about naming my kitten that but of course I'm the only twilight fan at home and no one got it so I just settled for Bella. Enough said, that's my opinion on her name, you can have your own.
